They are scared out of their wits over the power of the truth about Obama that Joe the Plumber caused The One to reveal.
Last night I saw the following lies that were in direct response to the truth phenomena that is Joe the Plumber:
1. That witchy frizzie blonde congresscritter from Florida was on the Bloombery business channel (”Money & Politics”). She was bloviating on and on as usual. But then she talked about the Pelosi special session after Obama wins (donchaknow) and she actually stated: “WE WILL BE FOCUSING ON TAX CUTS FOR SMALL BUSINESS.”
I almost puked.
2. Then almost immediately thereafter I saw an Obama commercial in which he was sobbing on and on about the “little guy” firefighter and construction workers and so on (no plumbers that I saw), and he actually said “I AM GOING TO FIGHT FOR YOU.”
Everyone knows that is a direct appropriation of McCain’s most famous campaign line. More puking.
As I said, not only are these huge whoppers about Obama’s actual policies, they are transparently clear attempts to blunt the damage being done by Obama’s ANSWER to Joe the Plumber, to wit: “Hey, everybody, I’m a Marxist.”
They are attacking Joe because they want to obsfucate Obama’s answer. He is a Marxist and he said so plainly.
Fiscal drag
Fiscal drag is the tendency of revenue from taxation to rise as a share of GDP in a growing economy.
Tax allowances, progressive tax rates and the threshold above which a particular rate of tax applies usually remain constant or are changed only gradually. By contrast,
when the economy grows, income, spending and corporate profit rise.
